Default Golf clubs in a Cessna

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to carry 2 adults and 2 sets of
clubs in a Cessna 152 and how to do it?

Don't take any fuel along. I doubt you could physically get two sets
of clubs in there let alone the weight issues. Full fuel, and 2 full sized
people put you pretty danged close to gross.

Put the clubs in two big boxes and put them on the brown truck.

I know people who do that when they fly commercial - have the clubs
delivered right to the clubhouse.

Use the same box to ship them back. Most (good) vacation destination golf
courses are set up for this.

You'll need a lot of balls to do that...

Many years ago I picked up one of those collapsible/adjustable golf clubs
that was advertised at the time in the airline seatback catalogs. IIRC, it's
a single club that collapses down to about 18 inches and the head is
adjustable from 3-iron to putter. I have used it and it works fine, just not
as good as real clubs though. It's easily portable in a C-152...

As far as 2 adults, it depends how big they are and how far you are going.
With a couple 150 pound guys, you can probably fill the tanks and go
farther, more weight and you'll have to leave some fuel behind and stop for
fuel more often.

YMMV
